Pick a Brick: Standard service paused in North America – and obsolete elsewhere

 In what is surely our final update on LEGO® Pick a Brick for 2024, we have been informed that the service has temporarily paused "Standard" elements in the US and Canada over the holiday period as usual. However, "Bestseller" elements remain fully operational, with over 4000 elements available with fast delivery. 

Canada: note that they are temporarily unable to ship orders to certain rural areas due to the ongoing disruptions with Canada Post.

In Europe, Australia and New Zealand, there’s no change because everything is now available through the Bestseller service! There is one change though: you will see that the site has been updated to completely remove this Bestseller/Standard distinction. Hooray! A great and symbolic end to an incredible year of improvements from the Pick a Brick team. Can't wait to see what 2025 brings!

LEGO® Pick a Brick improvements in Europe, Australia and New Zealand

As a result of more warehouse space in Poland, LEGO® Pick a Brick have just made a massive upgrade to the platform (but not in North America, which remains the same, as it is not served by the Polish facility).
